Ever since I was a child I have wanted to teach. I have always enjoyed the thrill of academic discovery—the suspense of searching for answers within the tangle of one's own thought. The ability to follow through with such a search is necessary for success in any academic pursuit. Moreover, it broadens the horizons of one's own life, enriching one's everyday experiences through a commitment to one's inborn curiosity. Currently, I am enrolled in a PhD program at the University of Chicago w... Read more

Hi! I'm Hannah and I'm an experienced tutor of all things relating to the ancient Mediterranean. Since I began studying Latin at 11, I've been fascinated by the ways our knowledge of language influences our perception of literature and culture. I turned my early passion for antiquity into a career when I entered a Ph.D. program for Classical Studies. During my time there, I taught and tutored Latin and Greek to students at all levels. I received an M.A. in 2016; since then, I've worked as a L... Read more

I'm Nikolai! I graduated cum laude with a degree in Dance and Choreography and I am a professional dance artist in Philadelphia. Dance and the many subjects associated with it have broadened my world in so many ways and I love incorporating concepts I've learned through the study of movement into tutoring more traditional school subjects. I began teaching myself Arabic, Portuguese, Greek, and Hindi through music, media, native speakers, and books. This study deepened my appreciation for my na... Read more

Elsbeth
Experienced and Dynamic Reading and Writing Teacher
- $50 / h
- Philadelphia , Pennsylvania ( 19143 )

I believe that there are a few key steps that must be taken before being able to successfully facilitating learning: getting to know a student and building trust, discovering strengths and finding ways to utilize them, and building a love of learning and an enthusiasm for the process of learning, while continuing to feed that enthusiasm, especially when challenges are encountered in the learning process. Without these steps, the progress of the student will be much slower, if there is any at... Read more

The program was entitled, "The Neuroscience Pipeline" and involved volunteer undergraduates from the Biological Basis of Behavior curriculum at the Un... Read more
